HomeMy WebLinkAboutRecommended Findings for ApprovalRECOMMENDED FINDINGS FOR APPROVAL
That the site for the proposed use is adequate in size and shape, since the addition
of a 1,030 square -foot convenience store is at an existing developed service station
site that would continue to maintain adequate parking and circulation areas and that
the sales area for beer and wine will be no more than 8 percent, or 53 square feet,
of the available sales area of the proposed convenience store.
2. That the site has sufficient access to streets and highways that are adequate in
width and pavement type to carry the volume and type of traffic generated by the
proposed use, since the addition of a convenience store with accessory alcohol
sales is not expected to result in an appreciable increase in traffic.
3. That the proposed use will not have an adverse effect upon adjacent or abutting
properties, since the gas station is located in a developed commercial area, easily
accessed by an adjacent arterial street. Also, conditions of approval controlling the
sale of beer and wine will reduce any potential for adverse effects.
4. That the proposed use is deemed essential and desirable to the public convenience
and welfare, since it will contribute to the viability of the service station, an
established and allowed use in the applicable mixed -use zone.
5. That public convenience and necessity may be served by the proposed use of
the property for the retail sales of alcoholic beverages pursuant to law.
